L. Franssen
Mother and child with a rose
Oil on wood, 44,5 x 33,5 cm
signed
The artist of this outstanding painting is completely unknown so far. There is no entry under "L. Franssen" in any encyclopaedia or reference work. There was a Dutch artist, Jan Fransen (1604/5 - ca. 1646), who was mainly based in Amsterdam. According to Thieme/Becker, he created numerous paintings with biblical depictions, study heads and still lifes. However, it could also have been Jan Franssen or Frantzen, who was not born until 1644 but was also active in Amsterdam. However, no confirmed works by either artist are known.
Just as interesting as the attribution is the depiction: a young woman holds her child on her lap while she prepares a meal on a hob. At the same time she holds a rose in her hand. Most likely, Mary is depicted here with the young Jesus...

The classroom - Ferdinand de Braekeleer (1792-1883)
By Ferdinand de Braekeleer the Elder
Located in Gent, BE
Oil on panel
Signed and dated lower left: "Ferdinand de Braekeleer, 1868, Antwerp."
This depiction of a classroom clearly shows the typical style of De Braekeleer. One can read the painting as one reads a story. The viewer's gaze can wander about, analyzing all the different characters and their activities. There is a sort of humor to the scene, with a psychological characterization of the different characters. On the left side of the classroom, we can see several students working diligently. While another one has thrown his writing slate to the ground, he seems to have given up. In the center of the painting, we can see the older school teacher, explaining carefully to three of his students how the problems should be solved.
In this work we can also see how De Braekeleer follows the composition schemes that were common in the seventeenth century. Think for instance of ‘little schools’ attributed to Adriaan Brouwer, Adriaan van Ostade or Jan Steen.
Ferdinand de Braekeleer was a Flemish painter well known for his genre scenes and emerges from this painting as an excellent craftsman. The high quality of his works revived Belgian painting and his role as a teacher of the next generation of artists was significant. He taught at the Antwerp Academy from 1855 onwards, and had artists like Charles Venneman...

Conviviality in the tavern - Charles Venneman (1802-1875)
Located in Gent, BE
Oil on panel
Signed lower left: "Ch. Venneman 1854"
A scene of lively camarderie and warmth unfolds within the intimate confines of a rustic inn. The artist masterfully captures the essence of conviviality and merriment in this charming interior setting.
At the heart of a scene stands a woman, her focus intent on marking a tally on a board in her hand, perhaps keeping track of the game of cards. At the table beside her, two men engage in a game of cards. One of them leisurely empties his pipe in a pot.
Standing behind the card players, two men share hearty laughter, seemingly exchanging tales or reliving shared memories. Their joyful interaction infuses the room with an infectious sense of camaraderie and friendship. A black and white dog sits serenely beside them, a quiet observer of the convivial scene, adding a touch of peaceful companionship to the lively atmosphere.
The tavern's interior has a comforting warmth, illuminated by the soft glow of an inviting hearth. Pots and utensils adorn the space. Above the doorway, a statue of Mary and child adds a touch of reverence to the spirited setting, juxtaposing the earthly pleasures with a hint of spiritual significance.
